Finish: malty, nutty again but this time with a hint of almond, slight hint of leather, the aromas grow more and more spicy and linger on. Then they fade with discreet roasting smells and a final slightly spicy touch.

Overall impression: Firstly the whisky is very soft to the nose, and also really smooth to the taste, then it shows more body and trumps in the aftertaste with a definite spicy touch. The balance between fruit, malt and wood is unparalleled!
